Tegan Christiansen '19 Recruiting Profile

I am a multi sport student athlete.  I have played full contact football since I was 9 years old.  I also played basketball and baseball on traveling tournament teams since 8 years old.  I have been overlooked by coaches in the past because I have never been the biggest guy on the field or court.  This has motivated me to work harder and become a better player in all sports. I have been the short stop and pitcher for our Babe Ruth baseball team that qualified for the Babe Ruth World Series 3 years in a row.  We finished in 3rd place twice and 5th once.  I have played all three sports in high school while maintaining a 3.6 GPA.  As a freshman I played both offense and defense on the freshman "light weight" team.  As a sophomore I earned the starting safety position on varsity.  I led the team in tackles with 51.  As a junior I earned Big Eight second team all conference honors as a defensive back.   This year  (senior year) I have been selected to the first team All-Big Eight Defense as a defensive back.    I have an inner drive to outwork anyone on the field and I motivate myself and others to succeed.  I standout from other football players because of my instinct for the ball and aggressiveness.  I have a determined personality and grit.  I look forward to playing college football.  

On April 21, 2018 I participated in the Wisconsin Football Coaches Association Combine.  Out of the 550 participants I posted the best time in the “L Drill”  of 6.69 seconds.
